  Maxtor 6Y080P0 Hard Drive Review
Time: 11:22 EST/16:22 GMT | News Source: E-Mail | Posted By: Jared Evans

Today all leading companies have hard drives with the buffer size increased up to 8 MB. In Western Digital JB series the scores got better in Ziff-Davis WinMarks but the performance worsened in all access models of Intel IOMeter. Now it's Maxtor's turn.

Model 6Y080P0 of 80GB is included into DiamondMax Plus9 line described in the review of models '02. This is a full-size line of the density of 80GB per platter (according to the manufacturer). But our watchful readers noticed that the platter capacity could vary. The discs of firmware version YAR41VW0 feature 60 GB per platter (80 GB is obtainable with more tracks), the discs of firmware version YAR41BW0 have it dependent on a disc size - 80 GB per platter for 80GB and 160GB drives and 60GB per platter for 60GB and 120GB drives.
